Air Conduction Audiometry (A/C) - measurement of hearing sensitivity to pure tones, usually in the range of 250Hz – 8K Hz. The pure tone signal is detected after it passes through the complete auditory pathway, including outer, middle and inner ear, brainstem, through the brain and auditory cortex.

same as A/C but pure tone stimulus bypasses outer and middle ear and stimulates the inner ear and subsequent auditory structures to the cortex. The resulting measurement is the sensori-neural component of the hearing loss (or ‘nerve loss’). The difference between A/C and B/C is referred to as the air-bone gap or conductive hearing disorders.
